Zellweger claims hair was a 'hazard'

The Academy Award-winning actress debuted her new haircut at the Tribeca Film festival premiere of her new film My Own Love Song on Thursday. Zellweger explained that her dramatically shorter hairstyle was a necessity.

"It was sort of a job hazard sort of thing," Zellweger told People. "It's not worth keeping after a while. It had to go. Shed the old."
